Here's a quick guide to what the Snipe writers have toiled over for your amusement this week:

Shit you think is cool (but isn't).

We realise that it’s difficult to be ‘cool’ these days. One minute it’s geek chic, the next it’s 50s noir and who knows, next up might be seventies funk, but what we can at least do is tell you when something definitely isn’t cool, at all. You might remember previous topics; ‘Sparkly Vampire Cunts’, ‘Ironic Nerdiness’ and ‘Nick Clegg, the cunt with a thousand faces’. As I’m sure you’ve come to realise, we were right about all of those things. Everything we warned you about Clegg and then some has come true – so heed our warnings well my younglings, heed them well. [find out what they are]

Mad Ads: What happened next.

    The world of television is full of sexist material. Normally we at Snipe Towers have nothing against a healthy dose of sexism, as it means that Rob’s girlfriend still asks him to lift heavy objects so he can feel all manly, Maggie never has to take the bins out, and Noel gets to be the one with the beard. However, what really gets up Snipe’s collective (and properly sexy) arse is the adverts that just can’t help depicting one or other gender as totally retarded.
     So, for the next few weeks, we going to take a look at some of those ads and explain, step by step, exactly where bloody stupid ideas like this inevitably lead.
We call it: “Snipe’s Guide to Adverts” or “They got what was coming to them.”
